I’m a sucker for collecting things in games, especially in open world games. I spent too many hours running around collecting treasure boxes in Assassin’s Creed II, even though my many businesses and side-missions had my pocket flush with cash; I ventured into many areas I had no right entering in inFAMOUS because there was a blast shard I…
This week saw the release of Batman: Return to Arkham and I’ve been happily replaying Batman: Arkham Asylum (going so far as to finish it with all the Riddler trophies yesterday evening)…even though I already own and have played the game before.

That’s not stopping developer TT Games from adding more Batman content as part of the…
